KSL Read Today Party

We had four between soccer games today and a couple of activities we could attend.  The girls brought home invitations to the KSL Read Today Party.  It asked you to RSVP by April 27th and we were way past that day.  I called the school to see if it was still one without the RSVP.  They were clueless about the whole event.  With four hours to kill what would it hurt to check it out and enjoy Tuachan.  We arrived to crowds of people attending the weekly farmers market and pancake breakfast.  Finally we spotted a boy at the top of the stairs holding a sign welcoming Read Today Readers.  The girls looked at me did they participate and were they members?  Yes they were members and they read a lot of minutes.  Since last year when the KSL Chopper came to school I have been logging their reading minutes each week.  Little Valley Elementary was in the top 10 schools for reading minutes.  We were 7th and the only school in Southern Utah.

We were ready to enjoy the party.

 Picture with Isaac the Mouse
 Spin the Wheel...Ryder won chap stick.
 Rylee won a mood pencil
 Reganne won a pin.
 Free popcorn & water while we waited for the concert to start.  It started with a sneak preview of Aladdin.  WOW!!! They have a magic carpet and it flies around the theater.  Ryder asked who is Aladdin?  Better get the movie out.
 The Piano Guys.  
Reganne turned to Ryder as he started playing the piano with his feet.  He has monkey toes just like you.
 Autographs...A must 
 Please sign this and this.
As we left the theater they were handing out books.  Take two everyone.  This turned into take 4.  Then take as many as you can carry.  I believe we ended up with over $200 worth of books.  Wow for a few minutes of work each week the pay off was great.
 Who can pass up sticking your head through cut outs of any type.  Here is the advertisements for this years shows.  The girls have made me promise that we will go to Aladdin this summer and not like last year and Little Mermaid.
